inflation is crazy. back in my day you could buy a goat for two coins. until the cat eats it, that is

blows my mind that i have little online friends who mildly care about me. it’s really nice

anyway hi little online friends i care about you too 🍄

I'm a bit late, but anyways.

One of the big differences I've noticed from getting into Chinese dramas is how spoiled you get from gifsets of shows you've never watched. You see a gifset from an American show of one person cradled in another person's arms, pierced with multiple arrows and spitting blood, and suddenly you've been spoiled for a major character death. You see the same thing in a Chinese drama and you've gained a net zero information wise.

Don't leave the best part in the tags, Fox!

hey. do any of you trans/autistic mfs wanna see a baby werewolf

well if you insist

i had a joke about orpheus and eurydice but looking back it wasn't a good idea

When my cat lays down in loaf position, is she leavened or unleavened? Is my cat kosher for Passover?

My experience tells me that catloaves do not wish to rise, which makes them unleavened and kosher.

The above-mentioned loaf:

If your cat is not made from one of the five grains, she cannot technically be leavened.  However, since it is clear that she can be made into something that resembles bread, it may be worth asking your local rabbi if she is kitteniot.

If your cat is made from the five grains, be careful about getting the cat wet, it could be purrbrochts.

I guess for the sake of true clarity I should note that there are plenty of places where people do technically "have their dicks out" at Pride. That's pretty common in Seattle, where public nudity for non-sexual purposes is totally legal. Every so often at Seattle Pride I'll just turn around and hey, there's a penis, but it's ... just there, being a well-behaved floppy dick. I have yet to see an orgy break out at Pride.

And there are deliberately and specifically nude events in Seattle, as opposed to incidental nudity at Pride, so the fact that no one is clutching their pearls about the nude cyclists at the Fremont Solstice Parade is telling.

That's a great point.

I grew up vacationing in Provincetown every summer. I saw all sorts of kinky shit that I didn't understand. I saw whole asses on display. I saw drag queens coming and going from both bathrooms.

It was fine. My brother and I turned out fine.

My parents didn't explain that anything was or could be sexual. "They’re playing dress-up, I guess." "He must like the pants. Why? Well, he probably thinks he has a nice butt and wants people to see it. Yeah, it's pretty funn--NO YOU CAN'T ASK TO TAKE A PICTURE WITH HIM SHH." "Oh, they dress like that for fun. They probably use whichever bathroom has the shorter line haha!" And it was just no big deal at all.

Parents, it's not your job to prevent kink at Pride, it's your job to figure out what to say to your kids so that it's to big deal. You can explain more as they get older if you want, but that's up to you.

I don't keep drag under the kink umbrella, I should clarify - they just both fall under "things people insist parents will be unable to explain to their kids," and the thing is, parents don’t need to explain it. The magic word is "fun!" Do you know how easy it is to brush things over with kids if you use the word "fun?" It's for fun! They're doing it for fun! They must think those clothes are fun! They're having fun! Kids will accept "fun" as an explanation for almost anything, no further questions. And it's a perfectly valid one in this situation, too! They really are doing it for fun.

(I'm pretty sure if we said it was weird, our parents brushed it off with a "some people are weird, who cares though" sort of attitude. It was, once again, fine.)

Oh, man, Provincetown. Sometime when I'm not so tired, I should tell y'all about the summer we ended up in P-town for the day when I was like 17. My parents were not aware of Provincetown before that day.

I saw more when we accidentally crossed paths with some dudes from Portland's Naked Bike ride while my mom, some of her coworkers, my sister, and I were on a "Weird House Tour" then I've seen at pride. it was mostly just surprising bc we'd forgotten it was also that day.

wheres that post abbout that european guy saying americans are fucked up because we havent seen our grandmothers tits when you need it

Well I can't find the post, but here's a screenshot if someone wants to transcribe it

anonymous asked: boobs shouldn’t sag like that

asirensscng answered: what a funny way of admitting you’ve never seen a pair of boobs outside of porn.

I always think of one of my coworkers at a husky farm near Inari, who told me apropos of nothing while we were cleaning out dog shit together that he thought the reason Americans are “like that” (“like what, Veikka” got the response “you know what I mean”) is because “they never see their grandma’s tits.” His logic was that “in Finland, you go to the sauna with your grandma from when you’re a baby, and you see her naked, and this is years and years before you see any porn, so you know before you see any of it that it’s temporary and fake. And when you get a girlfriend later, you know it’s only a matter of time before her tits look like that too, you accept this. And Americans don’t know that! They don’t! They look at porn, and then they get a wife, and then they’re surprised and bitter when she gets old - it’s true!”

Like to be clear, I think Veikka’s analysis might have been missing more than a bit of nuance, this is the same guy whose motto was “Driving 600km south to Rovaniemi to get therapy is expensive, chopping wood till you don’t care about it anymore is free”, but I do occasionally still look at some British or American take online and think to myself, in his voice, “they’ve never seen their grandma’s tits”
